15 Real And Honest Moments I Wish I Was Not Single

1. When I have to carry my laundry bag to and from the laundry shop because it didn't reach the minimum kilo requirement to avail the free pick-up and delivery service. They're heavy! And I have a back problem.

2. When I'm really exhausted that even going to the spa to get a massage is tedious...but my body's aching I really want a massage and couldn't find a home service stat.

3. When I'm too lazy to run some errands. I wish I have a personal assistant.

4. When I buy too much that I need someone to carry my shopping bags.

5. When I went to the hardware and bought Venetian blinds for the first time. Clueless moment.

6. When I tried installing the Venetian blinds myself and everything, uhm...fell and disintegrated. I was so frustrated I almost cried. True story.

7. When I couldn't unscrew anything or loosen a tight cover. I have a strong and brave heart, but the skeletal muscle is another story.

8. When I'm sick, but have to get up and buy myself medicine and prepare me some nutritious meal so I can recover quick.

9. When I feel a little lousy because of PMS, and there's no one to reassure me I'm okay or at least someone I could unleash the hormonal monster inside with. Because like he has no choice but be a punching bag every month, but not hold a grudge against me because he knows it's just the hormones talking. Ladies of course knows what that means.

10. When my back really hurts but I need to go somewhere, and I don't want to leave the house without my essentials. Even when I try to remove a few things, the bag still feels heavy. Back problem is no petty thing.

11. When I have to travel alone and I feel paranoid and vulnerable.

12. When I want to watch a movie and all my friends are not available and I'm not in the mood to watch it alone.

13. When I need to share something too personal to share with friends or family. Or petty things even friends and family will find too trivial. I know a significant other wouldn't mind.

14. When I need some minor repair around the house that I am clueless with. Google has become a consistent boyfriend for the past few years. Only that he does the dictating while I do the doing. That is the exact opposite with a real life boyfriend.

15. When I'm being a scaredy-cat and it's too inconvenient or too late to call someone to sleep over or at least keep me company.

15 trivial yet valid and simple real life first hand experiences when I couldn't stop wishing I have someone at the moment. At those moments.

If married couples have their "I wish I was single" moments, singles have their "I wish I have someone with" moments too.

I am in a state where I can look you in the eye and tell you honestly and sincerely that I am absolutely genuinely happy being single. In fact, I'm getting too comfortable it's a little alarming.

Human as I am though, I still have moments when I wish to fill the emptiness in me.

That PMS really sucks.
That the desire to have my own family and raise champion kids is still very much alive in me.
That I am still normal!
That I need people in my life.
That every human indeed has an emptiness in their hearts that no amount of earthly treasure can satisfy.
That the cliche, 'all we need is love' is true.

That I can't live without God.

You know what? That moment passes, and I'm okay again. Back to my normal happy single and comfortable life. Like nothing happened.

Christ indeed is enough for me.

Hmm, I think I need to share this list with hubby. #11 and #14 are the only ones on there that I was like "yeah, that's kinda nice" and for #14, it usually involves more work on my part to get it done anyhow. I could definitely stand to have someone around with that foot bath!! :)

Thank you for visiting my blog "paulinescountrytales" and commenting about my first great grandchild. Even though I'm older I can relate about being single as my husband died when I was 50 year old and I lived alone for eight years. Interesting blog you have here. Paula from south Texas

I think it is great that you enjoy being single... there good things and not so good things to both sides of the coin... I have been married and I have been single and even though my marriage didn't work out, I still desire that partnership with someone special... xox

That's true. Happiness is a choice.I always am honest with my posts. I owe that to the people who stop by and waste a few seconds of their time to read. That's the least I can give them back---real story with lessons to learn. :)

Great Post!!! Your blog always says how I'm feeling at the moment and today you were so on point! I'm so grateful that even though I'm single and would be content with a boyfriend, I know where my true happiness and love comes, God!

I LOVE this!! I have a sweet friend who is also single and can relate. I also think this will serve as a great reminder to all of us Married folks that we have so much more to be thankful for than we realize!!

That boyfriend sounds good...but he must have had his faults since he is now an ex:) Single life is great for some and being with someone is great for others. I love my hubby even if I want to kill him on occasion:)

There are gadgets to help you unscrew a lid and reach high shelves, but it is nice to have someone who can do that for you. I am sure I would not know how to install blinds either. I enjoyed your 15 reasons, and then your declaration that being single can also be nice. Thanks for sharing with us here at "Tell Me a Story."

I have several single friends and there are times they know I envy their singleness just as they envy my marriedness. The key is to use what ever status one is in to glorify Him. Become an others person is not based on whether we are married or not. Enjoy it until someone special comes along.
